Ray Bradbury "Fahrenheit 451"Fahrenheit 451 is the temperature at which paper ignites and burns. The world of the future, where books are burned, people are flooded with information trash and any dissent is treated with electric shock, is terrible. He is scary because he is truthful, because a lot has already come true. But as long as there is love, beauty and the pursuit of truth, we have a chance.

Ken Kesey "Over the Cuckoo's Nest"This book is a crude and devastatingly honest portrayal of the line between sanity and insanity. A mental hospital, where everything works perfectly, turns people into good citizens. The red-haired Irishman, who simply mows here from prison, is leading the rebellion of a little man against this colossus. The only trouble is that "it is impossible to win a final victory here" … |
George Orwell "1984"The novel describes a world divided between three totalitarian states. The book is about complete control, the destruction of everything human and about trying to survive in a world of hate. The novel was repeatedly censored by the socialist countries. Was banned in the USSR. And today, Orwell's dystopia may be one of the most terrifying books you have read.

Evgeny Zamyatin "We"In the twenty-sixth century, the inhabitants of Utopia have lost their individuality so much that they differ only in numbers. At the head of the One State is someone called the Benefactor, who is re-elected annually by the entire population, as a rule, unanimously. The State's guiding principle is that happiness and freedom are incompatible.

Chuck Palahniuk "Fight Club"This is the most amazing and most scandalous book of the 1990s. The book, in which the mouth of Chuck Palahniuk spoke not only of "generation X", but - "generation X" is already embittered, has already lost its illusions. This is the last desperate attempt to find freedom. “Resurrection is possible only after complete self-destruction. Only by losing everything do we gain freedom."

The Catcher in the Rye by Jerome D. SalingerThe handbook of several generations of young rebels reminds us of what it was like when the system hadn’t eaten your head yet, and you ask questions that no one knows the answer to - because no one thought about them. About how difficult it is to fit into the world when you are 16 (or 27, or 48) - and this is the norm. 
|
Harper Lee "To Kill a Mockingbird"The novel, written on behalf of an eight-year-old girl, takes place in a small American town "tired of a long life", where there is a place for both crime and racial oppression. But this is a novel about courage. “Courage is when you know in advance that you have lost, and yet you get down to business and in spite of everything in the world you go to the end. You win very rarely, but sometimes you still win." 
|
Brave New World by Aldous HuxleyThe consumer society appears before us in all its glory. It knows neither pain nor sorrow. Almost from the very birth every person is taught that his place in society is the best; all are provided with whatever benefits they need. If, nevertheless, sadness crept into the soul, it is enough to take a couple of tablets of the light drug soma, and there will be no trace of a bad mood. 
|
Franz Kafka "The Trial"In the morning, on the day of his thirtieth birthday, Joseph K. is arrested, but no reason is given, by two employees of a certain organization. However, Joseph continues to lead his life as before, as the organization does not fear his escape. He is invited to court, visited at home and at work, and persecuted. All this time he is trying to find out the reason for his arrest, but in no way will he get the truth from the bureaucracy that surrounds him. |
Joanne Harris "Gentlemen and Players"The Privileged School of St. Oswald has always been renowned for its impeccable order and exceptional decency. It is even difficult to imagine that something daring, outrageous, outrageous can happen here. However, this is happening. It starts with some minor misunderstandings, but gradually events build up like a snowball. A secret war is being waged against St. Oswald.
